    Time To Get A Sears Die-Hard...........................

    TK..................................

    If others were told to keep the revs up because of an alternator problem then I assume,bad word, that TK did also................so maybe it's the same type of battery that was used last year............and maybe it was...........and not checked properly.......................

    Inquiring minds want to know about batterygate.....................

    On a note.........we had the same problem back with the AURORAS.....................but it was an easy fix.................

    And that turned out well considering the Auroras/Chevy motors were the dominant engine from 97-2003!

    It was during a caution. Wouldn't surprise me if they just forgot to keep the revs up while they were going so slow. Or they were seeing how low they could get it so they could save fuel. Who knows that its the same problem the Auroras had though. Alot of things could cause an alternator to work less than fantastically.

    The sidepods are big enough that you could put enough solar panels on them to power a small village.

    Really. They are price matching all riding lawn mowers, Home Depot or Lowes. And then they give you a $100 in store credit to spend.

    Hope this promotion, gets "lucky".
